We swear it’s purely for the good of your health. Doctors have said regular exercise, naming sex, walking and dancing as the most easily available and easy to include in our daily lives, as “miracle cures staring us in the face”. The news comes as researchers in the UK said that by increasing the amount of regular exercise, that you can cut the risk of cancer, dementia, heart disease and diabetes in patients. The report, drafted up by the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges and the NHS found that just 30 minutes of exercise five times a week could greatly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. The report outlined that by simply increasing exercise in their daily lives, people could experience serious cuts to their risk of contracting heart disease with 40%, as well as a drop in stroke and dementia by 30% and breast cancer by 25%. Bowel cancer rates could even be cut by nearly half according to the report. And the best way to introduce that exercise? Well the report suggests that a strict exercise or diet plan are likely to be dropped quickly. So the most effective way to get in those extra sweats? By a tumble in the sheets… or a long walk. We know which one gets our votes…
